HI Christy, I remember having a simlar problem with my Garmin GPS when I first got it and was setting it up. I called their tech service and he suggested changing ports, that sometimes, for no apparent reason a device will fail to read a port. So, maybe, changing ports will work for you. Also, I would try rebooting your PC as well. Hope this helps, Good Luck, MikeyJay, KM4FWT

Hi, and thanks for allowing me to join the group. I have been working on getting my CHIRP installed (and working) for several days now. Tonight, I FINALLY got everything to work, after trudging through many website, emails, and discussions. I created a couple of channels as a test run and everything read from the radio and wrote to the radio with no problem. I then went back into the program to start over and I got errors indicating the Port was no good. I had not removed the cable or changed ports, or done anything differently. When I went into my Devices and Printers folder, there was a yellow warning sign stating there was a problem with the port. But everything worked fine just seconds before that. I'm sure I will have more questions, but after getting this far on my own, I'm at a loss, and hope to get some help.Thank you for your time, Christy KEØCJO _______________________________________________ chirp_users mailing list chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users
